CITATION—Year’s Support
Monticello, the home of Thoaa
Jefferson, near Charlottesville, y.;
has been placed on the market fj
sale by Mr. J. M. Levy, who has bee
its owner for many years. J n tal™
this step, Mr. Levy does not say th.
he will sell to the first bidder
happens to come along with a f.
purse, but must be “able and worthy
to become the owner of such a shh
so dear to the hearts of all America
For many years there have
sporadic efforts, principally on
part of devoted women, to raise mom
enough to buy this magnificient
tate, but the efforts have not
with success,.
| Occasionally there has been
I ill-advised criticism of Mr. Levy
cause he does not donate the ph,
to the United States government j
self. He values the place at $10,090,
00 and announces that he will sell it j
the government for half that pry.,
on the theory, of course, that will)
maintained as a place of pious «i
grimage for Americans and lovers j
liberty from all over the world.
It is hoped that both Mt. Verp
and Monticello will be bought by j
government before it is too late,!
at all events it is hoped that the si_
of Jefferson will be bought under til
cumstances which will permit
American people to enjoy it as easa
as they enjoy the seat of Washing
Georgia, Decatur County.
To all whom it may concern: No
tice is hereby given, that the ap
praisers appointed to set apart and
assign a year’s support to Margaret
L. Wilson, the widow of J. W. Wilson,
deceased, have filed their award, and
unless good and sufficient cause is
shown, the same will be made the

Advice From An Editoi
Hence, I say, if you are insurable get in
sured. * * * I am talking to plain, life-
loving men and women who know not very
much about whot to do with money except
to enjoy whot they can buy with it.
For, as sure as you live, when the time
comes that the botom drops out of things
and you begin to go around from good fel
low to good fellow trying to cash in a little
of the good-fellowship that you’ve spent
for so freely, you will obtain nothing more
than a large gone feeling in your inwards,
and you will realize that for the man with
no money in his pocket this is a damp
and unpleasant vale of tears.
